Was a massive bang and shock wave when it went off just after 6.30pm last night. Shook the house so much both the wife and I thought something had hit us here in Greenhithe by the the shops.

Looking for recommended services in the Gulf Harbour area to fix a leak in the steering hydraulics at the fly bridge helm. Cheers

Used a couple of these last week for an offsite meeting of 10 people (wanted to ensure secure wifi). Takes a data SIM card and supplies 4G speed. Powered by any 5V USB charger. Plan on taking one out on the boat over the holidays.

Thanks for the suggestions. Nothing is coming up searching for dinghy minder so I'll take the thing apart and see what I'm dealing with.

No, didn't think to grab one last time we were out.
Its a plastic hub, like a car wheel without a tyre, mounted horizontally with the tow line looped around it and the line end going out through a hole in the transom. As the tow line is pulled out (by the dinghy when we're underway) it tensions up the internal spring so that it winds back in when we stop. Its like the internals of a retractable garden hose.
-
After much goooogling, buggered if I can find the proper name of this thing. The spring loading inside the drum has given up and I'm looking for parts or replacement options.
Anyone know? TIA.

Sorry, sill not fixed. I can't resolve the IP address for www.actionstation.org.nz
It looks like they might be technically challenged as BK put it.
Hmmm, works for me on PC and iPad.

Are sailinghigh and oceancruiser the same person?
AKA piclarke on other forums

Would be great if KIYC could be saved, and it seems the intention is to keep it running in much the same way.
Well done Chris Dickson and Co!

Just like old times with JustinPort and OceanCruiser

Thanks for that.
can you please state the number on boats damage and there type.
Was the Roberts design millennium damaged.
That's the email I got from GH Marina as I have my boat there. I'm not local to there so you'll need to go and have a look yourself for damage sorry.

Gulf Harbour Marina also had nearly 70 knots go through it
Hi Gulf harbour boaties,Last night saw the worst weather conditions we have experienced in the marina in a long time. At the height of the storm gusts of nearly 70 knots were recorded on the end of O pier. A large number of yachts and Launches throughout the marina have sustained wind damage. Michele is personally calling the most effected owners and all our dock staff are out on the marina trying to mitigate any further damage.
Given the situation The marina strongly suggests that ALL owners to come and check on their own boat. You know your boat better than us and may well pick up something that we have missed.
If you are unable to do so please give us a call
Safety first please be careful
Regards

I can advise you that if cheap is what you pay, cheap is what you'll get.

Cheap and marine don't really go together. The best you can probably do is a quality second hand unit. I bought and sold a rail mount Magma on TradeMe (actually sold it for more than it cost me).
-
Yes I have. With no luck. Is the iphone 5s different to the 4s?
Possibly if they're on different versions of iOS. Maybe try hotspot by bluetooth compared with wifi.
-
I've seen the Navionics app working on a wifi only iPad when "hot spot" connected to a phone with GPS. Have you tried that? Downside is using up the battery on both devices at the same time.

They wanted front row seats to watch the match.
How many players does it take to change a bulb?

Been "dunny"d here before http://crew.org.nz/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=23863

Agree there is no legal requirement, however when I sold my boat a little over a week ago I wanted some documentation to prove that the transaction had taken place, so I just wrote a simple bill of sale specifying what the item was, who the buyer and seller were and the date of sale and price and stating that it had been paid in full, and we both signed a copy for each of us (actually I had my attorney sign for me, since I had given the other guy my bank account information so I didn't want him to have my signature as well).
This is the way to go, or a contract like that used by brokers.
As an FYI re the comment about car registration, registration in your name doesn't mean legal ownership, just the pleasure of being ticketed if needed.
http://nzta.govt.nz/vehicle/registration-licensing/owner.htmlWhen you acquire a vehicle you are required to notify your acquisition to the NZTA without delay. Once you have notified your acquisition you become the person registered in respect of the vehicle. This is not the same as having legal title.
Tornado ripped through downtown Auckland last night including Westhaven....how's your boat?
